Report: A’Shawn Robinson will switch commitment from Texas to Alabama

Arlington Heights High School defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson, the lone five-star in Texas’ recruiting class, will renege on his verbal to the Longhorns and sign with Alabama, Rivals.com recruiting analyst Mike Farrell reports.

It had long been thought that Robinson was rethinking his early commitment to Texas, but according to several reports he hold told Texas coaches and players within the last week he was still solid.

If Farrell’s report is true, and Robinson signs with Alabama, it would be a crushing blow.
